I would say a larger Chevy as they angle in towards the center of the car when they are folded. I have a pair from a Corvair that I put into my 51 convertible. Those fold straight forward as the Corvair is without a console between the seats. My seats have the same hockey stick type trim pieces too. I got mine out of a Corvair from a junk yard full of old cars. The runners under the Corvair seats look the same as those, but, the latch for the seat is on the side and not coming out of the front like those.

I ID them as Azztinks. 61-64 GM, the Chevy emblem is not OEM, they'd have heat stamped that, but I'd bet a coffee they never did anything like it. My instincts tell me they're everything from a 64 and older full size, and maybe even the 'A' body cars like Chevelle, LeMans, Cutlass.

65-up Corvair shared the (similar, but slightly narrower) seat frames with 64-65 A-body GM cars, early Corvairs used a wider seat. There's a way to tell the width based on how many seat springs are visible from underneath, but that might not be possible with the current upholstery. Still, a Google search might find that spring count ID method.

And the lack of release knobs to fold the seat forward indicate early 60's as well. Look a lot like the seats in my 62 Nova, other than the crappy upholstery. The forward adjustment lever is not Nova, I like the corvair suggestion

Thankyou everybody
Obviously they have been recovered so I doubt even the design is o.e but if not corvair then what?
I know the guy had a tri chevy a biscayne and gullwing impala but that doesn't meen much.

64 Chevelle, etc would have seats like that. The impalas etc usually had the shiny trim go all the way across the top of the back rest. I had a pair of full size 64 Pontiac seats like that in my 55 Chevy.

A similar design was used on lots of different cars. Why do you need to know what they came from?

They are not full size impala/ other full size GM. 62-65 had the squared off seat backs with trim over the top. Things changed in ‘66 with the Strato Bucket, which you do not have. As others have said, they look like midsize or smaller GM to me.
